The Mercy of God says No!

The Bible declares: “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” But because I had no clue of the truth, I groped so much in the darkness of this world that I ended up being full of misery and woe until the mercy of God found me and said no to all my heartaches, filthiness and confusion. May God’s mercy endure for all those who trust in Him for ever and ever. .

At a point in my life before the mercy of God took control, I was so confused that I ended up becoming insane. I was taken to herbalists and mental homes where I was beaten and severely maltreated in order to be cured of my insanity but all to no avail.

One day I heard the phrase: “Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand.” The people around me interpreted it to mean that I should go around the streets saying the same phrase. God in His mercy; who saw the condition of my heart sent true and committed evangelists to me who properly explained the phrase to me.

God started revealing to me how deceitful I had been and how I found it hard to forgive a fellow human being and how I took pride in curses, anger, revenge, malice and all the vices that characterise the life of a sinner.

One glorious day, 18 years ago after the mercy of God had caught up with me, I prayed, confessed my sins and Jesus saved my soul.

The Lord graciously renewed a right spirit within me. I need prayers for my husband and children to accept this way of salvation so that we can all meet in heaven at the end of our race here on earth.
